Case Studies

Why do people with Parkinson need MobilAlarm?

Diabetes mellitus is a condition in which the amount of glucose (sugar) in the blood is too high because the body cannot use it properly due to an insufficient production of insulin hormone. Patients require periodical insulin doses in order to retain a sufficiently low glucoses level in their blood. The main symptoms of untreated diabetes include extreme tiredness and blurred vision; low blood pressure and even faints may occur. Thus Diabetes patients may need a mobile alarm service in emergency situation in cases they do not have insulin readily available. Because of its design the mobile device is also usable with blurred vision and even faster and easier to use than a normal mobile phone.
